Chicago Blackhawks selling Stanley Cup season melted ice a.k.a. water

Could you imagine, as a Chicago Blackhawks fan, owning a piece of the ice on which your favorite team skated the Stanley Cup in June? Unfortunately, they won the Cup in Boston, and the Bruins melted that stuff faster than a Popsicle on the surface of Mercury after losing Game 6.

No word if the Bruins will counter by selling bottles of 17-seconds worth of tears ...

From the Blackhawks:

All the amazing moments that took place on that ice literally go down the drain. This year, we decided to do something different. We were on-hand for the ice removal to document the occasion and save a few precious pieces of that magical home ice.

And we want to share it with you. We're producing an extremely limited number of souvenir packages with the actual melted ice from the United Center floor and we're selling them to raise money for Chicago Blackhawks Charities.

Here’s a trailer for the Blackhawks water sale, er, “melted ice” sale:

If this gimmick sounds familiar, it’s because the selling of “melted ice” is becoming as commonplace as a charitable hockey venture as the teddy bear toss in juniors.
